The Eighty-Year-Old Sorority Girls
Published by Brown Books Publishing Group
“A heart-warming story that celebrates the bonds of friends, family and sisterhood. This is a beautifully crafted novel.” —Kristina Seek, author of The Hashtag Hunt
As a group of eighty-something girlfriends deals with the mental decline of their sorority sister, they reconnect with their college sorority, advise their grandchildren, find new lives for themselves, and continue to show up for each other.
Vivian, nicknamed “Button,” is an Alzheimer’s patient who adores her sorority group. Helen rediscovers love at age eighty-one, Ida’s crazy side comes out during football season, and Laney is the “big sister” in charge of baking for the group. These three women consistently show up for Vivian as her mental health deteriorates—because that is what sisters do. As they discover a new way of life, they find they would rather take “the road less traveled,” just as they did in their college days.
“I love books that represent the values of female friendships and supporting one another. The way these women show up for each other is truly inspiring.” —Pat Mitchell, Co-Founder and Curator of TEDWomen and author of Becoming a Dangerous Woman
“I think fans of Steel Magnolias will love this book! I recommend it wholeheartedly!” —Carey Conley, coauthor of Keep Looking Up
“A truly endearing book . . . We all need our tribe, our pride and to think about our special relationships and their lifetime impact personally and on future generations.” —Robin White Fanning, President of the Phi Mu Foundation
“Sorority sister or not, this book is an incredible portrayal of sisterhood and friendship that will warm your heart.” —Kelin Kushin, Chief Business Development Officer at Vivid Vision
